Description:



Hansel has been with us about about a week’s time, he has very quickly adjusted to us and our expectations/routines.

He thrives on consistency and knowing his boundaries. He is housebroken, and gives good signals when he needs to go outside. He is sleeping through the night in his kennel in our bedroom. He loves getting lots of exercise, and does really well on a leash. We’ve been taking him on 3-4 walks a day, and he’d make an excellent running buddy for someone!

He’d love a fenced yard, but does well on a tie-out too. Right now he’s the only pet in the house, but seems to be very interested in other furry animals, and might like a friend in his forever home! It also might help his unease at being left alone when his humans go to work.

He’s a puppy, so consistent work on not biting, and not getting overly excited is important. He shouldn’t be given plush toys, or he’ll show you how good and fast he is with destroying them!

He is such a LOVER, and wants to be right where all the action is. He often wants to be touching the human that’s nearby, and it’s so sweet. I’ve never seen a more observant dog.

He enjoys sitting outside and noticing birds, planes, even the tiniest ant. Hansel is going to be a great adventure buddy, who will show his family unconditional love for years to come.


* Puppies under 5 months should not be left alone for more than 4 hours at a time to help them with potty training and socialization.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care. 

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS.  We do not transport to potential adopters.

How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance.  Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
